The Princess of France

A year after his father’s death, Victor returns to Buenos Aires in order to win back the life he was forced to abandon. He brings a new project with him for his former theater company: a radio-play of Shakespeare’s Love’s Labor’s Lost, a play they had all worked on together before he left, and in which he played the role of the Princess of France. Waiting for him to start rehearsing are five actresses who know him all too well: his girlfriend, Paula, who swore she would be faithful; Ana, his lover, who doubts his love; his ex, Natalia, who believes he still loves her; her friend, Lorena, who hopes he will make a move on her; and Carla, a total stranger, who could be his next true love. But Victor doesn’t know that this time of work will soon become a time to think again about lost loves.
